Aloha TC's,I've been a huge fan of this forum for quite awhile and thought it's time I joined in the fun.My interest in tiki started about 10 yrs ago after scoring my first piece of coco joes,so of course I wanted bigger ones so I put aside my obsession for monster models and got me some chisels and a mallet and as is my way just dove on in. Enough about me here's some photos of some of my carvings.[hopefully you'll be able to see them]

I have loads more photos including progress shots which I know you all like but have kept my first post pretty basic as my computer is sooooo slooow.Thanks for looking.Cheers Campbell

Seeksurf-thanks for taking a look,I'm a HUGE fan of your thread
your carvings truly are amazing!

Here's some pic's of a piece that I carved for Appleton Estate
rum and now lives at their Melbourne office.This was my first corperate
commision so I was pretty stoked on this peice.
Then time for burning and sanding
followed by 1 coat of merbau decking stain and 1 coat of
western jarrah stain an varnish.
Finally a shot of him on the door at the Watango lounge!
Cheers Watango.
